Hey guys and Gals,

Recently got into the whole skyline scene and have been reading your forums for a few months now and finally decided to take the plunge and start trying to get one.

my projected car is, because im 17, soon to be in melbourne, a NA R33 S2 White Manual. I'm looking for as much advice as possible so please be positive and negative towards my decision because i would like the best skyline for me. I'm Possibly being recruited into the navy so i can get a loan no problems, but the only problem would be me getting the car from the import place back to Crib Point.

My name is Kyle, and ive loved skyline since i first started playing Underground back in the day, and have recently witnessed the power of a GTS-T R33 and decided i would like to one day have a 34 GTR. as i am getting a GTS this is my stepping stone to my dream car.

thanks guys,

Kyle

Welcome to the Forum Kyle :(

Yep as Black Widow said loads to learn on here just read through the many pages or use search button as you will probably find the info you need has been posted before :(

So you have a NA R33 on it's way on a boat now?

I havn't actually ordered it as of yet, as i said im potentially in the navy, so i dont particularly want to let her sit in queensland where i am currently and have her waist away to nothing. besides ive found on to be imported for about 8-10k in melbourne. the beauty of having my car down in melbourne with me is when ever i want to go to a meet im not very far away where as i live in the sticks where i am at the moment.

thanks for the speedy replies and can't wait to meet some of you in future events.

Well this is the risk we all take :) ...Thought of the option of buying a NA R33 in Victoria privately? Then you can see the car and get it check out before you buy it?

There is this site : http://www.prestigemotorsport.com.au/

the reason i wanted to import was because i just wanted the whole works when they come into australia and they get the full check over and get fixed if anythings wrong with them. thats all. plus i want to have this car for as long as i can.

but i see your point, ive always wanted it white, and i dont know anyone in melbourne so i dont know how id get from one end to the other.

Well if you go through a company here I am sure they do that and get the best car for your "money"

should have a look on car sales, trading post, car point websites and see what R33 GTS are around in melbourne...and buy a Navman :thumbsup: he will tell you how to get around..

You would know your way around Mel in a month no probs..It didnt take me long to know my way around Sydney :)

I would just way up all your options :P..It might be cheaper to buy one that's already here...Plus I like to see what I am getting before I buy it..But that's just me

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By Duncan · Posted

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
